| The quality assurance system of university teachers in Taiwan began in the Japanese occupation era in the early 20 th century.Since the establishment of Taipei Imperial University,Taiwan’s first university,the issue of teacher quality assurance has emerged.With the change of history,it has gone through a setback and gradually matured.So far,the development of teacher quality assurance system in Taiwan’s colleges and universities can be divided into four stages: embryonic stage,development stage,perfect stage and advanced stage.During this period,a dual structure of external macro-policy security system and internal micro-security system has been formed.The quality assurance contents of University teachers,such as qualification examination and appointment,rights and obligations,evaluation and promotion,further education and punishment,have been stipulated from macro-legal level and micro-level respectively.The quality of university teachers in Taiwan has been guaranteed and improved in an all-round way.The quality assurance system of teachers in Taiwan’s colleges and universities mainly guides Taiwan’s colleges and universities to construct their own characteristic quality assurance system by standardizing and perfecting macro-policies,including the rights and interests safeguard system such as teacher qualification examination and appointment system,teacher salary treatment and teacher appeal system,teacher evaluation and multiple promotion system,teacher training system and punishment system.Among them,we should focus on promoting the reform of teacher evaluation system and teacher multi-level promotion system to form a multi-dimensional,multi-level,step-by-step guarantee mechanism for the process,results and sustainable development of teaching,scientific research and service of University teachers.There are also some problems in the quality assurance system of university teachers in Taiwan,such as the lack of leading policy texts,the cumbersome procedures of evaluation system,the lack of comprehensive and matureimplementation of multi-promotion system,and the lack of emphasis on teachers’ further education in the internal system of universities.In this regard,we should reform the drawbacks of the teacher evaluation system,vigorously promote the model of multiple promotion,encourage universities to improve the criteria for teachers’ further education,implement flexible salary system to stimulate teachers’ hot pillow,and promote the transformation of universities to optimize and integrate teachers’ resources in view of the crisis of fewer children,so as to ensure the quality of university teachers to be sustainable and high-quality. |
